201.070 Condemnation of property.

Whenever the board finds that property anywhere within the county is needed for any of

the purposes contemplated in this chapter, the board may, by resolution reciting such

need, order the condemnation of such property. Proceedings for condemnation shall be in

the Circuit Court of the county, and shall be conducted in the name of the board by the

city attorney of the city of the first class, who shall be the legal representative of the

board, and the procedure shall be that set out in the Eminent Domain Act of Kentucky.
